EduLab

Running locally

By default, the project runs on port 8080: http://localhost:8080.

With Docker Compose

docker compose -f server-compose.yaml up -d --build server

With Go

go mod tidy
go run cmd/server/main.go

Two databases are supported SQLite (default) and PostgreSQL. For PostgreSQL, you have to set the following environmental variables:

POSTGRES_USER=%your db user%
POSTGRES_PASSWORD=%your db password%
POSTGRES_HOSTNAME=%your db hostname%
POSTGRES_DB=%your db name%

Adding a new language

Add the language go to translations.go

For Spanish, for example:

//go:generate gotext -srclang=en update -out=catalog.go -lang=en,pt-BR,es github.com/louisbranch/edulab/cmd/server

Then run:

go generate translations/translations.go

A new file for the language will be created at translations/locales.

Copy the source file for the one containing the translated messages:

cp translations/locales/es/out.gotext.json translations/locales/es/messages.gotext.json

After translating the messages in messages.gotext.json, run the generator again to update the language catalog:

go generate translations/translations.go

Finally, for the language to appear on the website, add the new language to the server.
